SUGGESTIONS appear elsewhere in
our columns that should be of in
terest to our business men. No
amount of private talk will help
matters at all. There must be a
reaching out after that which is
most needed. We are not content for
the town to remain as it is; rather
would we see it walled in. The time
has come for united action. Let
every business man and capitalist
discuss the question and then make
known their intentions. Already
petitions are out asking for water
supply. A better move could not
be made. First an excellent supply
of water, and then the question of
better light should be discussed. Gas
oline is perhaps good enough for a
very small number, but not good
enough for town encompassed by
two great trunk railroads. We want
industries here. Can they be gotten?
Why of course they can. But how?
Offer inducements. In what way?
Sell your land at reasonable figures,
exempt them from taxation for five,
even ten years. The town abounds
in desirable locations. This is sol
Now, let us come together, and the
result will be gratifying.

Four of the Anarchists were hang
ed Friday, and two were committed
to Imprisonment for life. Gov. Ogles-
by done what he thought was right,
and the great pressure brought to
bear on the Chief Executive to save
the lives of the bomb-throwers was
very great.
The four hanged were August
Spies, Albert r. Parsons, George
Engel and Adolph Fischer. The two
committed are Samuel Fielden and
Michael Schawb. Thus the law
has been vindicated, and it is to be
hoped that all future efforts at de-
struction of life by bombs will be
treated in a similar manner.
The nation must be preserved
from band of men whose mode of
destruction is so fendish and un-
warranted.

Should be used in attempting to cure
that very disagreeable disease, catarrh.
As catarrh originates in impurities in the
blood, local application can do no per-
manent good. The common-sense me-
thod Of treatment is to purify the blood,
and for this purpose there is no prepara-
ton superior to Hoods Sarsaparila.
That this peculiar medicine does cure
catarrh is shown by the many testimo-
mails from people who have relief upon
using it when all others had failed. A

if the men elected to the Senate and
House of the Delaware Legislature
Of 1889, be in favor of convention,
what will stop the people from hold
ing Convention. The Nelos' idea
is a good one; to put the matter to
vote at the general election in No
vember, 1888, would settle all dis
pute. The time is at hand when
the question must be kept before
the people; there will be conven-

duty, now to beseech the Governor
to convene the Legislature and have
the matter settled.

THE suggestions of the Morning
Nelos in regard to Governor Biggs
calling an extra session of the Legis-
lature is a good one. The Governor
has the power to do so, and then
the matter of a Convention could be
settled. But there is no possibility
of "Uncle Benny" converting the
Legislature. Mr.. Biggs is in favor
Of Constitutional Convention, but
he is not going to put himself to any
trouble about the matter. There
has been enough votes cast to war
rant the coming legislature to take
definite action in regard to calling
convention. A majority of the
popular vote was polled, exceeding
two of the three elections since 1882.

THE defeated candidates Leeds
and Maloney for the offices of sheriff
and Controller, will be a setback to
the Boss system in Philadelphia.
The Times vigorously showed the
people the mistake the Republi-
can party made in nominating these
men, and through its columns they
were defeated. In speaking of the
defeat of Mr.. Leeds, the Times says:
ave have no rude huzzas to fling
in the face of Mr.. Leeds. He is Just
what he processes to be, and that is
always manly and commands a
measure of respect even when he
must be smitten because he is Just
what he is. He is politician by
taste and profession; a Boss by
nature and habit; spokesman by a
lifetime practice, and he never has
disguised his attitude or his aims.
His election would have been a dis
tinct vindication of the most des-
potie Boss methods in city politics,
with Mr.. Leeds as the Boss of Bosses;
and that was the rock on which his
political craft was wrecked"
